Well, I'm sorry but you don't get to define "poor advice" as "any advice that you personally disagree with."
For sure. There are times I disagree with my fellow mentors on advice (and I'm sure the same has been for me) but …
That's correct! For some strange reason I'm not wearing glasses in my photo but I always have my glasses on IRL and on test day, the proctor had no issue identifying me

the difference between Yale and 25th school... is it horrible?
Nope, not horrible but certainly a 25th ranked school would be considered a safety school in this scenario. Yale is in the the top 3.
@Kateryna said:
i guess my question is do you think its a mad decision to have only top schools on the list?
Haha, yeah I still do. Just maybe add 1 or 2 safety schools on your list if you would like
@Kateryna said:
i was wondering if people consider safety schools in the first place because they are eager to get in law school in that application cycle specifically?
Yeah that's not what we mean when we talk about safety schools although I def…
@Kateryna said:
i do not really understand the point of safety schools in the first place. if its not a dream law school why settle for less?
I see what you mean. A safety school is a school the applicant is not opposed to attending but wouldn't c…
@Kateryna said:
i guess general definition of safety school is where u fall on 75th percentile LSAT/GPA wise. is that correct
Yes but this usually means it's a school that ranks lower than your top choice school.

@Kateryna said:
what i wonder is do you know how law schools decide who to give and not to give fee waivers to?
Since applications are very low nowadays, some schools give waivers based on request or if you attend their open house, etc. Some schoo…
@Kateryna said:
I feel like applying to each and single one in the top 25 law schools. I also think about not having any safety schools on the list and applying only to those I will absolutely love to go to, not simply be "okay" with. Does it sound…

I am aiming to take the LSAT in Feb. 2017, If I do this will I still have a chance at being admitted for school starting Fall 2017 or would it be best that I wait until Fall 2018?
While it's true you will have a chance of a…

Take a break, right now. Stop thinking about the LSAT for a few days and go have fun. You need it.
If Dillon says it then you MUST do it.

I average and try to hit 4-5 hours a day. Some days that means 3 and others 6, but I average right around 25-30 a week. For me it seems to be the sweet spot where I get a lot done without burning myself out. I usually take Sund…
@tanyarusinko said:
Can I use this addendum to discuss why this particular school is my top school?
No, an addendum is generally added to an application to explain a discrepancy in your LSAT score, GPA, or both. An extenuating circumstance would …

How do I see how much time is remaining on my account?
Put your cursor over your username on the black dashboard, go to settings, and the info should be on the bottom left hand side of the page.
Yup. Submit before your score is released. Don't worry about your GPA because they don't even look at the application without a valid LSAT score. The reason we encourage submission before the score is so that when the score is released your applicat…
Haha yeah, don't worry OP...very seldom will you find yourself caught in a horror experience with test center and proctors. I've taken the LSAT twice already and nothing unusual occurred. Just go in and dominate.
